Good thread... Interested in hearing / seeing more of what others are using :)

I am big on audio --- audiobooks, pre-recorded radio shows, etc.    So, for now, sadly:

  • Winamp --- works fairly alright and can add URLs manually which is good since many things aren't in Shoutcast directory
  • TuneIn --- neat for discovering new stations and shows.   Bloated as all hell.  Quirky/broken in places.
Liking:

  • Clean Master - for reclaiming RAM, cleaning up junk files, etc.
  • Battery Doctor - charging algorithm, process management...
  • Android Weather - lighter than other biggies.  Works meh, not incredibly well, but better
  • Clapp - the best Craigslist app I know of.
  • Epson iPrint - for the network connected printer/scanner
  • F-Droid - the "open" market alternative
  • K-9 Mail
  • Link2SD
  • No-frills CPU Control
  • Scanner Radio - various public service radio signals from all over (audio-live)
  • Xabber Development - chat client
This is my bastardized phone with a goofed ROM... Bunch of apps just won't install/work right on it.  Temporary until I upgrade to something else.

I haven't seen anyone mention SolidExplorer, it's the best file manager I've found so far and it supports FTP/SFTP/WebDAV.

If i listed every app on my phone (Yes, I use all of them, all the ones I don't use have been Disabled or Uninstalled) we'd be here all day.

I think Outlook.com app, Chrome app, Phone app, Messaging app, and Starbucks app are most used by me.

I am surprised that no one uses Firefox Mobile? It is my first app to install on every Android phone.

In addition to Firefox, I use MuPDF, Wuala, and Safari Books Online.

Interesting, I've never even considered using Firefox for my Android.  I've been using Chrome.

Talking.

Texting.

Chrome.

Google drive.

Email.

Calculator.

Camera.

Credit union app.

I don't use my Galaxy S3 too heavily, obviously. Every once in a while I'll use something else, but I'm usually not too far away from a laptop or proper device to do what I want to do.

I much prefer using my tablet (Galaxy Note 10.1) or laptop to do actual work and view documents.  I'd say I use my phone 60% emails, 20% texting, and 20% calls.

  • Cydia
  • Terminal
  • iSSH
  • Netflix
  • Snapchat
  • 3G unrestrictor
  • Banking app

Nice lists. Should offer some great insight for those looking for new apps to play with.

On another subject, has or does anyone use apps that attempt to pull up caller IDs to better help identify callers?
